24"Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am, and to see my glory, the glory you have given me because you loved me before the creation of the world. - P33

Jesus prays for all future believers, asking the Father that they may be one, justas He and the Father are one. By this unity, the world will know that the Fathersent Jesus and has loved the believers as He has loved Jesus. Jesus expressesHis desire for the believers to be with Him and to see His glory. - P33

Notice that this work to which Jesus commits Himself is done for a "them"—the church. We do not grow in the knowledge of God on our own. The Christian life is not the story of me and God; it is the story of God and us, His church. This is the way God sanctifies the saints and glorifies Himself.
- P34

We, too, all carry recommendation letters as believers in Christ. The difference is that the writer of our letters never draws a blank because He didnot write our letters based on our performance or merit, but solely basedon His. Written on our letters is a declaration of a perfect and righteouslife, signed by the blood of the Son of God. And based on this declarationthe Father accepts us. - P35

But it gets even better. Not only has Jesus given us these spotless letters, butnow He stands beside the righteous Father, interceding for us. The highpriestly prayer found in John 17 is not just a one-time prayer Jesus offeredwhile on earth. As our advocate, He continually intercedes for His peopleat the Father‘s side. He pleads with the Father, "Guard them, sanctify them,
keep them until they finish their race!" What a wonderful Savior and anamazing advocate! If the Son of God is for us, who can be against us? - P35

˝(의역) 양을 먹이라는 명령은 사랑을 만들어가라는 ...

"(의역) 양을 먹이라는 명령은 사랑을 만들어가라는 것입니다. 하나님의 사랑은 ‘un-made‘(한 번으로 완성되는 것이 아닙니다)입니다. . 성령께서 우리 안에 내주하시면 우리 영혼이 하나님과 연합되는데, 그것이 끝이 아닙니다. 최종 목표는 예수님처럼 우리도 아버지 하나님과 하나가 되는 것입니다."성령을 받으면 하나님과 연합됩니다.  - P81

‘끝까지 사랑하심‘ 입니다. 예수님은 도저히 사랑할 수 없는 베드로에게 찾아오셔서 더 큰 사랑으로 만나주시고, "내 양을 먹이라는 사명을 주셨습니다. 예수님께서는 하나님 아버지와 완전하게 연합하시므로 하나님의 무한한 사랑으로 우리를 사랑하셨습니다. - P81

 그저 ‘나의 양을 먹이라‘는 것입니다. 주님의 양 중에서는 그리고 다른 길로 헤매는 양들이 있는데, 이들을 다 사랑하며 자신을 다 소모하기까지 먹이라는 것입니다." 주님께서 끝까지 자신을 내어주심으로 하나님 아버지와 하나되셨듯, 우리도 끝까지 자신을 내어주어 주님께서 맡겨주신 양을 돌봐야 합니다. - P81

한줄노트 우리 안에 하나님의 사랑이 있으면, 그 사랑은 소모되어 없어지지 않습니다. - P81

챔버스는 ‘상식‘과 ‘소명‘의 차이를 들어 올바른 신앙의 기준을 설명합니다. ‘비전 없이 하나님을 섬기는 것은 쉽습니다. 소명 없이주를 위해 일하는 것도 쉽습니다. 그 이유는 하나님의 요청에 의해 간섭을 받지않아도 되기 때문입니다." 챔버스는 무엇을 하든 소명과 관계된 삶을 살라고 말합니다.  - P82

 ‘사역‘은 사명을 위한 ‘도구‘가 되어야지, 사역 자체가 ‘목적‘이 되어서는 안 된다는 사실을 명심해야 합니다. "당신이 유용한자 아닌가를절대로 고려하지 마십시오. 다만 당신은 자신의 것이 아니라 주님의 것임을 언제나 잊지 마십시오."  - P82

1After Jesus said this, he looked toward heaven and prayed: "Father, the hour has come. Glorify your Son, that your Son may glorify you.

2For you granted him authority over all people that he might give eternal life to all those you have given him. - P22

3Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent. - P22

 Jesus declares thateternal life is knowing God and Jesus Christ.  - P23

Jesus has completed the workgiven to Him and revealed the Father to His disciples, who have accepted Hiswords and believed that He was sent by God. - P23

He always acts for His glory first and foremost, and because of His perfect character, His glory works for our good. When a God who is always and only good, who knows no darkness at all, and is all wise and sovereign—when such a God acts for His glory, all who belong to Him benefit. - P24

Do you believe that you benefit when God acts for His glory? Ask God to give you a better understanding of how His glory works for your good. - P24

To put it another way, knowing the name of the Father as revealedy the Son is the means for the saints to be saved. This is the mission thatesus came to accomplish, and it was ultimately completed on the cross. - P24

When His name is made known,
the result is nothing short of eternal life. - P24

may pray with gladness the prayer You taught us: Hallowed be Your name, Your kingdom come, Your will be done—in my heart, in this life, as it is in heaven. In Jesus’ name, amen. - P24
